Godot Multiplayer - Salting and Hashing Passwords | Godot Dedicated Server #9

In this Godot Multiplayer Tutorial, I will be teaching you some bad practices, seriously. I will teach you how to secure password storage on multiplayer servers by salting and hashing passwords. Normally we would use a slow hashing function for this, but GDScript doesn't have one integrated.

Therefore, as an alternative, we will make our own slow hashing function using one of the core elements of bcrypt. This (making your own function) is not advisable and generally advised against.

Keep an eye out for patch notes of future Godot releases, so you know when you can replace this code with something more robust.
